The2019 IIHF World Championship was hosted from 10 to 26 May 2019 by Slovakia. It was the second time that Slovakia has hosted the event as an independent country, as was the case in2011. The host cities wereBratislava andKošice, as announced by theInternational Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) on 15 May 2015 inPrague,Czech Republic.[1]
Finland won their third title by defeating Canada in the final.[2] The Finns had 18 first-timers for the 2019 IIHF World Championship and were widely regarded as an outsider to win any medal at all.[2] Despite this, the Finns won their third World Championship and lost only two games in the tournament (against the USA, and Germany). Russia secured the bronze medal after a penalty-shootout win over the Czech Republic.[3] This tournament was also the first time since the 2006 IIHF World Championship that both promoted teams (Great Britain and Italy) stayed in the top division.
In December 2018, the IIHF announced changes to theovertime procedures beginning at this tournament: all overtime periods would be 3-on-3 regardless of round (rather than progressing from 3-on-3 to 4-on-4 and 5-on-5 over the course of the tournament), and the gold medal game would no longer go to a shootout; play would continue in 20-minute periods of 3-on-3 until a winning goal would be scored.[5]
In the semifinals, there was no set bracket. After the quarterfinals, a re-seeding took place with the highest seed playing the lowest remaining seed. Seeds were determined by performance in the preliminary round.[6]
The seedings in the preliminary round are based on the 2018IIHF World Ranking, as of the end of the2018 IIHF World Championship, using theserpentine system. On 22 May 2018, the IIHF and the local organizing committee announced the groups, in which Slovakia and Norway switched places so that Slovakia would play in Košice and the Czech Republic and Austria would play in Bratislava.[7]
